Who Should I Start? Roman Wilson or Elic Ayomanor

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Roman Wilson will be a healthy inactive for the Monday Night Football game against the visiting Miami Dolphins in Week 15, according to Teresa Varley of Steelers.com. It's the second straight game that Wilson will sit on the sidelines without dealing with an injury. It coincides with the team picking up veteran Adam Thielen for WR depth behind DK Metcalf and Calvin Austin III. The 24-year-old former third-rounder in 2024 has only 12 receptions on the year on 21 targets for 166 yards and two touchdowns in 12 games in his second year in the NFL. In addition to Thielen, the Steelers have added veteran wideout Marquez Valdes-Scantling to their active roster, pushing Wilson further down the WR depth chart in Pittsburgh.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Elic Ayomanor has recorded only one reception in each of the past two games, but scored his first touchdown since Week 3 last week against the Cleveland Browns. The rookie fourth-rounder has maintained a near every-down role since the start of the season, playing 81.5% of the snaps in 12 games. Ayomanor has earned at least five targets in all but two games played this season, but it hasn't translated into much fantasy production in a poor Titans offense, averaging just 6.9 PPR points per game. The rookie wideout profiles as a deep league flex option in a favorable Week 15 matchup against a San Francisco 49ers defense that has allowed the eighth most passing yards per game this season.
